I’d share but the court case is still pending.
Am I supposed to be in a group chat? Well, shit. Now I also want to know the incident that excluded me from every group chat.
Ahhh the WhatsApp Paradox
For every chat group you’re in, there is a separate group that exists without you in it
That’s not a paradox, that’s the group chat power set theorem
I would not be surprised if my old coworker-friends started a separate group chat without me after the nth, “Maybe you should come to one of these protests” and “Please at least read the wikipedia summary on this historical topic before you start going off about it” message from me.
They’re fine people but they’re also kind of very… apolitical.
aaand that’s why I’m in no group chat. Not even in the family group chat. They kept adding me and I kept leaving immediately. Everybody got angry with me. A couple of months ago something hapened and the grouo is over. I don’t know what happened because I was not there. Nobody is angry with me and I’m not angry with anyone. say NO to group chats
I’m the admin of our group chat and I have a “no social media shares or political talks” or muted.
family photos and announcements only
I came here for people’s group chat incidents
What I actually got is a flame war against vegans and a flame war against non vegans and they both hate vegetarians
Please reply with your group chat incidents
Got drunk and sent a picture of my dick wrapped in a fur blanket with a face drawn on it and the caption “winter is cumming”
Was pretty funny all in all, was an incredibly rowdy group chat
/r/cospenis if this was reddit.
Gone vegetarian 5 years ago just before the pandemic hit. I’ve never had any real issues so far and my friend group has mostly switched to vegetarian meals when I’m present. Not because anyone forced them, but because it’s a lot easier and there’s so much awesome vegetarian food nowadays.
And when we barbecue, everyone brings their own stuff anyway. So that’s a non issue as well (I don’t care about cross contamination at all)
I don’t think I could go full vegan, but in all honesty, I save enough money from not buying meat that I can buy all of my milk and cheese organic and that got rid of pretty much every last one of my moral qualms.

Queue militant vegans telling me how awful even organic dairy is in 3, 2, 1…
Not a vegan, but organic is really a marketing term more than anything, at least in the US. Organic farming isn’t necessarily a more environmentally safe alternative to normal farming, especially since “organic” pesticides tend to also cause local environmental damage.
This is confusing for me. When I was growing up, it was in the aftermath of DDT and all that shit. Organic was what decent people started using to indicate that no awful pesticides like that were used. It wasn’t supposed to be marketing.
nowadays organic just means it doesn’t use regulated pesticides, doesn’t indicate any quality besides that
I don’t know and don’t care about the US, but at least in the EU this statement is false. The EU-BIO- Label doesn’t regulate as much as it could, but it does regulate a lot more than just “no pesticides”.
Oh, I’m in America, and it doesn’t mean “no pesticides”. it means no pesticides approved by the EPA. fuck knows what they’re actually putting on there
Real food has meat in it
Real food tastes good, my favorite Indian restaurant has some of the greatest food I’ve ever eaten, without a trace of meat
No I’m not vegan, I like meat, but it’s not a necessity in everything
As a person who loves eating meat (fish and chicken mostly) I agree that I love some veg dishes
Fun fact! In English, the word meat does not include fish (at least usually). You can thank the Catholics for that one.
At this point in American English, there is no question that meat includes fish.
I think it should, but I don’t think it does. The first definition that shows up when I search the word: “The edible flesh of animals, especially that of mammals as opposed to that of fish or poultry.” It explicitly excludes fish, though I do think poultry is generally considered meat, so maybe this isn’t perfect. Every definition that is about flesh from a creature seems to exclude fish though.
The distinction of fish not being meat is the reason why the pescetarian diet exists. It’s a diet next to vegetarian, but allows fish. The don’t eat “meat.”
